Hans posted a wonderful tutorial on adding a little sticky message board to the top of your blog. It was extremely easy to follow, and I had it up and running within minutes. I made a few modifications so it would blend with my blog. Here is what I did.

@andrew, I did a little post. Like I said, it has been awhile since I did it, but I remember it was easy. I checked the site, and they are not taking new registrations right now, but I think they will start up again soon. Just keep checking. Then, if you have a problem, let me know.

@manicou, I love that cloud too! It is what I've wanted since I started with blogger. Finally. And when you click on it, a page of my blog comes up with all the posts related to that word! I know you can't see me, but, I'm SMILING!

Hi!I liked so much your template that I wanted to add fluid 3 column and upper messegeboard to my own template. But now I have problem..Left sidebar is falling above right now. What to do?http://bonpo.blogspot.com/

@bonpo, I viewed your blog in Firefox and IE...it is displaying properly in both. I find that sometimes (depending on which computer I'm on) when I'm in preview mode the sidebars don't fall properly. I think it is due to the little 'screwdriver' icon after the widgets. But, when signed out of blogger and viewing the blog, it displays with the sidebars side by side.

@porschefreak98, I was going to view your source code, but you have so many blogs I didn't know which one. So, all I can tell you is to very carefully start from the beginning and put the code is exactly as in my post...following the steps. That is the code I have for my message board which you can see right under my header.

Hi Annie, is the sticky message board the same as a little real-time chat box? I often see those at forums and though I want one for my website, it looks a bit messy. It's nice for people to leave a little note to you but some of those comments can get real nasty!

@rob tyrrell, see the little blue strip under my header talking about my table of contents? That is my sticky message board. I can change it whenever I want to fit the moment. Easily. I suppose it could help people once they get to your site and to get returning visits.

I was very pleased to find this site.I wanted to thank you for this great read!! I definitely enjoying every little bit of it and I have you bookmarked to check out new stuff you post. Thanks for sharing.
